Talk about your liquid schedules in a mostly liquid early spring.
Colville High, idle since splitting a season-opening doubleheader at Connell, hopes to get a soggy Hofstetter Field in playing shape this week.

But Newportâs field wasnât in any better shape than Colvilleâs. Whether that one will be rescheduled is anybodyâs guess at this juncture of a wet, cool early spring.
